    how to find coverage for PCR-enrichment? (raindance)

    Hi,
    I used Raindance technolofy to entich the exome of chromoxome X. Raindance uses PCR in nanodrops for enrichment.
    Then I sequenced using HiSeq.
    I want to know which of my targets were covered by at least 10 reads, for exmaple, and which targets are not covered.
    I tried to use Picard CollectTargetedPcrMetrics , but got unreasonable results.

    What I did:
    got BAM files from Eland (from the NGS supplier).
    Convereted to picard sorted bam files by SortSam
    and then used CollectTargetedPcrMetrics, with the interval files from raindance:
    AMPLICON_INTERVALS= primers list
    TARGET_INTERVALS= targets list

    Does anyone know what I did wrong?
    I there an alternative free software for this analysis?

    Picard CalculateHsMetrics always worked great for me in whole exome, and I cannot get any help or support from RainDance.

    I will be grateful for any advice!
    Thanks

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
